Jimmy Valvano's 1993 ESPY Speech. "Don't give up, don't ever give up."

The V Foundation for Cancer Research was founded in 1993 by ESPN and the late Jim Valvano, legendary North Carolina State basketball coach and ESPN commentator. Since 1993, The Foundation has raised more than $115 million to fund cancer research grants nationwide. It awards 100 percent of all new direct cash donations and net proceeds of events directly to cancer research and related programs. The Foundation awards grants through a competitive awards process strictly supervised by a Scientific Advisory Board. For more information on The V Foundation or to make a donation, please visit www.jimmyv.org.

  • Wow during my depression this helped me

  • Who disliked this?!!

  • My dad died suddenly in his sleep 12 days ago. Actually, he was considered a 12 year cancer cure. His original diagnosis came in 1993 when Jimmy V said "don't give up. . . don't ever give up." I remember holding on to those words with hope. Mourning my father tonight. I needed to remember those words. I am going to give to the Jimmy V foundation tonight so that hope will be there for another scared young person when they need it. Thank you Jimmy V.

  • Thank you for positng the video. I needed to hear this to make it through a tough day.

  • We forever continue to CHERISH you Coach Jimmy. We love you from Seaford High School.
